Global Warming

“Global warming” refers to the global-average temperature increase that has been observed over the last one hundred years or more. But to many politicians and the public, the term carries the implication that mankind is responsible for that warming. This website describes evidence from my group’s government-funded research that suggests global warming is mostly natural, and that the climate system is quite insensitive to humanity’s greenhouse gas emissions and aerosol pollution.

Believe it or not, very little research has ever been funded to search for natural mechanisms of warming…it has simply been assumed that global warming is manmade. This assumption is rather easy for scientists since we do not have enough accurate global data for a long enough period of time to see whether there are natural warming mechanisms at work.

The United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) claims that the only way they can get their computerized climate models to produce the observed warming is with anthropogenic (human-caused) pollution. But they’re not going to find something if they don’t search for it. More than one scientist has asked me, “What else COULD it be?” Well, the answer to that takes a little digging… and as I show, one doesn’t have to dig very far.

But first let’s examine the basics of why so many scientists think global warming is manmade. Earth’s atmosphere contains natural greenhouse gases (mostly water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane) which act to keep the lower layers of the atmosphere warmer than they otherwise would be without those gases. Greenhouse gases trap infrared radiation — the radiant heat energy that the Earth naturally emits to outer space in response to solar heating. Mankind’s burning of fossil fuels (mostly coal, petroleum, and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and this is believed to be enhancing the Earth’s natural greenhouse effect. As of 2008, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was about 40% to 45% higher than it was before the start of the industrial revolution in the 1800’s.

It is interesting to note that, even though carbon dioxide is necessary for life on Earth to exist, there is precious little of it in Earth’s atmosphere. As of 2008, only 39 out of every 100,000 molecules of air were CO2, and it will take mankind’s CO2 emissions 5 more years to increase that number by 1, to 40.

The “Holy Grail”: Climate Sensitivity Figuring out how much past warming is due to mankind, and how much more we can expect in the future, depends upon something called “climate sensitivity”. This is the temperature response of the Earth to a given amount of ‘radiative forcing’, of which there are two kinds: a change in either the amount of sunlight absorbed by the Earth, or in the infrared energy the Earth emits to outer space.

The ‘consensus’ of opinion is that the Earth’s climate sensitivity is quite high, and so warming of about 0.25 deg. C to 0.5 deg. C (about 0.5 deg. F to 0.9 deg. F) every 10 years can be expected for as long as mankind continues to use fossil fuels as our primary source of energy. NASA’s James Hansen claims that climate sensitivity is very high, and that we have already put too much extra CO2 in the atmosphere. Presumably this is why he and Al Gore are campaigning for a moratorium on the construction of any more coal-fired power plants in the U.S.

You would think that we’d know the Earth’s ‘climate sensitivity’ by now, but it has been surprisingly difficult to determine. How atmospheric processes like clouds and precipitation systems respond to warming is critical, as they are either amplifying the warming, or reducing it. This website currently concentrates on the response of clouds to warming, an issue which I am now convinced the scientific community has totally misinterpreted when they have measured natural, year-to-year fluctuations in the climate system. As a result of that confusion, they have the mistaken belief that climate sensitivity is high, when in fact the satellite evidence suggests climate sensitivity is low.

The case for natural climate change I also present an analysis of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation which shows that most climate change might well be the result of….the climate system itself! Because small, chaotic fluctuations in atmospheric and oceanic circulation systems can cause small changes in global average cloudiness, this is all that is necessary to cause climate change. You don’t need the sun, or any other ‘external’ influence (although these are also possible…but for now I’ll let others work on that). It is simply what the climate system does. This is actually quite easy for meteorologists to believe, since we understand how complex weather processes are. Your local TV meteorologist is probably a closet ‘skeptic’ regarding mankind’s influence on climate.

Climate change — it happens, with or without our help.

  8. I have learned newer and more effective things through the blog post. One more thing to I have observed is that in most cases, FSBO sellers can reject anyone. Remember, they’d prefer to never use your solutions. But if an individual maintain a stable, professional connection, offering support and staying in contact for around four to five weeks, you will usually be able to win a meeting. From there, a listing follows. Thanks

  9. I have learned some new elements from your site about pc’s. Another thing I’ve always considered is that computers have become a product that each family must have for some reasons. They supply you with convenient ways to organize homes, pay bills, go shopping, study, listen to music and in many cases watch tv programs. An innovative method to complete these types of tasks is by using a laptop computer. These desktops are mobile, small, strong and easily transportable.

  11. I do love the way you have presented this particular matter plus it really does give me personally some fodder for thought.

Anyway, thank you for this fantastic point and while I do not really go along with this in totality, I regard the viewpoint.

  22. Good post right here. One thing I’d like to say is that most professional domains consider the Bachelor Degree as the entry level requirement for an online diploma. Though Associate Diplomas are a great way to start, completing your own Bachelors uncovers many doors to various employment opportunities, there are numerous online Bachelor Diploma Programs available coming from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another issue is that many brick and mortar institutions offer Online types of their degree programs but generally for a extensively higher cost than the firms that specialize in online education plans.

However, I have got the judgment that notebook computers are still less than powerful more than enough to be a sensible choice if you often do things that require loads of power, like video touch-ups. But for net surfing, statement processing, and most other prevalent computer functions they are all right, provided you never mind the tiny screen size. Thank you sharing your ideas.

  184. Furthermore, i believe that mesothelioma cancer is a exceptional form of cancer malignancy that is typically found in individuals previously familiar with asbestos. Cancerous tissue form inside the mesothelium, which is a defensive lining which covers the vast majority of body’s areas. These cells generally form in the lining in the lungs, abdomen, or the sac that really encircles one’s heart. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

  194. Thanks for your intriguing article. Other thing is that mesothelioma cancer is generally attributable to the breathing of fibers from mesothelioma, which is a extremely dangerous material. It can be commonly witnessed among laborers in the structure industry who may have long contact with asbestos. It can be caused by living in asbestos protected buildings for an extended time of time, Inherited genes plays a crucial role, and some consumers are more vulnerable towards the risk compared to others.

These sensors connected with some cams change in contrast, while others employ a beam with infra-red (IR) light, specially in low lumination. Higher specs cameras oftentimes use a combination of both systems and may have Face Priority AF where the dslr camera can ‘See’ any face and concentrate only in that.

  210. One thing I’d like to discuss is that fat reduction plan fast may be accomplished by the correct diet and exercise. A person’s size not merely affects appearance, but also the actual quality of life. Self-esteem, despression symptoms, health risks, along with physical capabilities are impacted in putting on weight. It is possible to make everything right and at the same time having a gain. If this happens, a medical problem may be the perpetrator. While too much food instead of enough exercise are usually to blame, common medical conditions and trusted prescriptions could greatly increase size. Kudos for your post right here.

  213. Thanks for making me to obtain new suggestions about computer systems. I also contain the belief that one of the best ways to help keep your laptop computer in best condition is a hard plastic case, or even shell, that matches over the top of one’s computer. These types of protective gear tend to be model distinct since they are manufactured to fit perfectly on the natural outer shell. You can buy these directly from the seller, or from third party sources if they are designed for your notebook computer, however don’t assume all laptop will have a spend on the market. Again, thanks for your points.
